v1.c8.s2.4

While the Harappa script [20.4.1] has defied decipherment, the direction of writing seems to be from right to left. The legends on most of the historical seals are in Brāhmī and its derivatives, only a few being in Kharoṣṭhī. The legends on pre-Kushan seals are mostly in Prakrit, and those on the later ones in Sanskrit.
